Margaret Mead: A Life"Engaging . . . a fine biography that gets beyond the public icon to a portrait of the real woman." Chicago Sun Times At the age of twenty three, in the 1920s, Margaret Mead traveled alone to the South Sea and wrote of adolescent sexuality and guilt free love in her now classic Coming of Age in Samoa. For the next half century, Mead would act as a powerful participant and opinion maker in the largest issues of her time: culture and religion, education
"Engaging . . . a fine biography that gets beyond the public icon to a portrait of the real woman."--Chicago Sun-TimesAt the age of twenty-three, in the 1920s, Margaret Mead traveled alone to the South Sea and wrote of adolescent sexuality and guilt-free love in her now classic Coming of Age in Samoa. For the next half-century, Mead would act as a powerful participant and opinion maker in the largest issues of her time: culture and religion, education and child rearing, sex and freedom, world hunger, war, and the politics of peace. Outrageous and extravagant, Mead was, in every sense of the word, spirited. Friendships and families of many kinds were at the core of her personal life, and she was both loyal and demanding with people, always challenging them to move in new directions. An inveterate world traveler, a teacher at Columbia University, and curator of The Museum of Natural History, Mead wrote thirty-four books, made ten films, and was granted twenty-eight honorary degrees and numerous awards. This intimate and fascinating story is an astonishing record of the personal and scientific life of an extraordinary human being. Praise for Margaret Mead "Mead was, as Miss Howard's abundantly and unfailing lively account shows, a very American individual. . . . Miss Howard writes not as an anthropologist but as the superb reporter she is."--The Wall Street Journal
"A triumph of industry, imagination, and literary grace."--The Washington Post

We call it the brick.
Great chew toy. Not really made for playing fetch. It’s large and very heavy. Good construction.

Indestructible but hard to get treats out
We have a power chewer and have had the black Kong products for a long time. I opted to try this new design however, the shape makes it difficult for our dog to reach the treat. We have stopped using it since I had to keep digging the treat out for her. : ) The black Kong shaped like a pear works much better for her. Giving this 3 stars overall because she can't really use it well.

Really great ball
Our yo German Shepard loves this ball. She can get hold of it on all sides. Really a tough toy. Hasn’t chewed it up. Loves to toss it herself.
